People in Mississippi are poised to lose running water for an undetermined amount of time, the state's governor said Monday night.
A major pump at Jackson's main water treatment facility was damaged and the city has been using backup pumps, Gov. Tate Reeves said during a news conference.
Until it's fixed, there will be no reliable running water. The city won't be able to produce enough water for serious needs, including fighting fires and flushing toilets, Reeves said.
All Public Schools will shift to virtual learning on Tuesday due to the water shortage, the school district said.
"We will continue to closely monitor the water conditions on a day-by-day basis at our schools while conferring with officials to determine when scholars and staff can safely return for in-person learning," the district said.
No timeline was given on when the main pump will be fixed.
Officials will distribute drinkable and non-drinkable water to residents, Reeves said.
